Once you enter an area everything is saved as is. You need to make your changes before you enter an area, then start using a saved profile from before you enter that area.

Sometimes with AE the changes happen even after you have been to that region, but not always.

i tried that and the chest is still stuck in the water and one AE it doesn't even have that chest on there and could this be why my chest aren't showing up at all

If the chest is not showing in AE it probably won't be in the game.

Using AE open the region where the chest is in the water. Grab it and put it close to some structure that you know is on land, right click it and make sure there is a check-mark by 'to ground'. Hopefully that will work. If not, use the wizard to make a new one.

If that doesn't work, go into more detail about how and where you are trying to put the chest.

okay when i made my first chest i was going to move it but i thought the water was a path because i really didn't know what i was looking at, it work and appeared but i put it in the water so i quit the game and started AE and deleted it then saved it, then I made another one on actually land but that chest didn't appear and the chest was still in the water and it is still there and i also tried with other area's but they still don't appear other then that one in the water. To make my new chest i just followed the tut again so i put my new one near the bridge because it was in a kinda open area and easy to get to

Did you right click and put a check-mark beside 'to ground' ? Sometimes AE will set 'PositionZ' to a negative number, and the item will be underground. Some people say it doesn't matter, but it does, items will not automatically raise or fall to be at ground level. So, click to ground or set PositionZ to the same height as something close by.

Do you know how to open .tng files, the files in the FinalAlbion folder?
If so, tell me which region you want the chest in and what you want in it. I will write the script and you can put it into that tng file manually.

kublkun · 07-31-2008, 12:34 AM

at the moment i do not but i will find out how and really where ever easyest to you. ...wait could it be that i put modded items in it cause i put the jack of blades armor in them along wiht sword of aones

jwc2200 · 07-31-2008, 01:54 AM

If you put items in that do not exist in-game it should just ignore them, unless you made punctuation mistakes.
If you used FableExplorer to load an fmp of Jacks clothes and used the correct name in the chest script, adding modded items should work.
Try it without Jack's clothes and see.

kublkun · 07-31-2008, 02:05 AM

nope theres still only that chest thats in the water that not suppose to exists

jwc2200 · 07-31-2008, 03:19 AM

I can not imagine what your problem is. You hopefully made backups of all the files in FinalAlbion, if so, replace them. If not, delete the FA folder and redo FreeRoam. That should put everything back to original. After that spawn a chest again, or just add what you want to an existing chest or barrel or bookcase.
